A giant wall could be seen dividing the land into two. On one side, there were multiple houses and structures of Wood and stones, while the other was filled with trees and wild Beasts. The weather was nice and shiny until now, but suddenly black clouds appeared in the sky.
The cold wind blew, causing a chill. The guards standing on watch towers could see a black storm approaching. Everyone in the Village was confused; something like this had never happened. Shamans predicted this was a sign of a dark omen; everyone should be ready to face it.
No one believed such a thing and started doing their daily chores. A few kilometers away, a strange black wave could be seen approaching the Village. When looked at from close, multiple strange undead creatures could be seen marching toward the Gnoll Village. The black smoke released from them created a dark storm and intimidated all the wild beasts.
The one at the front was a strange undead creature covered in Armor from top to bottom. It was mounted on a strange, mysterious undead steed. Behind him were nine strange undead Gnolls riding undead Moa birds; the other undead Gnolls were following them.
At the end of the undead Army were four humans. They were discussing among themselves the strategy they would follow. Manu asked, "Why are we attacking them during the day when our forces are strongest at night?"
Dev replied, "If we attack them at night, then we will lose our advantage when the night ends. If they decide to defend the whole night, we will be at a disadvantage, but if we attack them now, they will try their best to eliminate our Army in daylight."
"They will not be able to hold back; all we have to do is defend till night and try to damage their troops. At night they will not be able to stop our full power assault with All members; we have to bait them to chase us and leave their stronghold."
Vinay, you will lead the Army; when the Shaman Chief arrives, you will have to deal with him. Manu and I will assist you whenever needed. Rishab, you have to keep a low profile. Only target Scouts that invade our camp and investigate them. There still might be some Shamans and Scouts, but we don't have to worry about them."
ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm "Vinay, be patient; don't waste your mana attacking them. Also, start retreating when the opponent arrives. Keep retreating and baiting them to chase after us; we have to fight away from the village wall. They might have some weapons planted there that might give them an advantage."
Everyone nodded. Vinay led a small group of undead soldiers with a mount and cast a provoking spell at the gate. He then stood there; the Gnoll soldiers saw that and approached him. He retreated from there with his soldiers; he stopped one Kilometer away.
The battle started, and the Gnoll soldiers called for reinforcements when they saw the number of their opponents. The Undead Soldiers retreated five hundred meters more, the reinforcements arrived, and the battle started. The Gnoll Village became alert when they realized the number of their opponents; more and more soldiers were sent to the battlefield.
Ten Alpha Gnolls arrived on the battlefield. The Shaman Chief believed they could win easily, but he soon heard the news about the leader of the Undead Army. A Dark Magician cast various curses on the Gnoll Army, which resulted in the stalemate.
Shaman Chief sent more soldiers, but he received the news soon that two more strong opponents had arrived. At last, Shaman Chief had to come by himself. He was riding a black-feathered Moa bird. He arrived at the battlefield and saw what was happening.
He had not received any news about the 'Golden Knight, and now that he looked at the Undead Army, he realized he might have been defeated. He was also unable to figure out why the Shamans and Scouts had not responded to his call. His heart was heavy when a thought came to his mind: Could it be?'
'No, it can't happen.' He shook his head, stroking out the possibility. 'They might have been late due to some accident and may reach here anytime; he comforted himself.
In front of him, he could hear Cries, roars, and chirps as weapons collided with each other. On one side were strange Demihumans with a head like a hyena and a body similar to a human in structure. They were battling against their opponents, who were made up of bones with a red flame burning in their eye sockets.
In front of the Army of Dead were two humans. One of them was riding a strange six-legged pathfinder with two tails. It had long spiky hairs on the back of its neck, and its tails were muscular. This creature used them as a whip multiple times to throw the opponent back.
It swiftly danced through the battlefield, dodging multiple attacks easily. It even attacked with claws and bit whenever it got a chance. The one riding it was a human boy with black hair and brown eyes. He was wearing a tight combat suit. He had a long, black-colored Spear in his hand, which he swung and reaped the life of any opponent near him.
On the right side was a giant, lion-like creature. It had yellow-colored fur and a dark brown mane. Its Roars sent shivers into the backs of the Gnolls facing it. Its mane was large and bushy. The wind surrounded it and made a special barrier that protected it from attacks. It swung its sharp claws whenever it got a chance. They released sharp wind blades that ripped through the opponent facing him.
The one riding him was a human with a well-developed body. His whole body was covered in metallic Armor. He looked heroic when he entered the battle with a shield in one hand and a long Sword in the other. A yellow glow surrounded him, increasing the strength and defense of the Allies near him.
A gray-feathered bird entered deep into the undead Army. No one was able to notice it. It was about to reach the Dark Mage when multiple black chains appeared and bound it with its Beast. Next, a Chakram appeared and beheaded it and its Beast. Then a dark flame touched the body, and it disappeared the next second. A shadow could be seen moving silently toward the backlines of the Undead Army.
